"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened" Dr. Seuss


people everywhere
the highest intelligence
forced backwards through
materialistic pleasures
does convenience defeat
the power of
humanity
is the worth of a dollar
worth more than an individual life
i watch them in their habitat
placed before me
the highest intelligence?
i laugh at their stupidity
Gods chosen species?
i cant help but smile at their
claim to superiority
the life they lead is a ticking timebomb
yet they feel immortal
walking around as if they were
Gods
sickness engulfs me,
but i continue to watch
the highest intelligence
placed before me to rot.
